Check out the blog to learn when Air Force Research Laboratory GRILL, Battle Road Digital, Reveal Technology, Brightline Interactive, LuxCarta, and Northrop Grumman will join us in our booth. https://hubs.li/Q02ZHY9y0

Congratulations to new #CesiumCertified Developer Jianming Liang! The Cesium Certified Developer Program recognizes the technical expertise of developers who build on the Cesium platform. It's free + open to all. Learn more about the program: https://hubs.ly/Q02WG5yR0

Extra excited for our latest #CesiumCertified Developer NGS which is also based in my hometown of Charleston, SC. Jason Newmoyer and team are long time contributors to the open source community and well experienced in delivering innovative solutions to the US national defense and intelligence community sectors. I look forward to future collaborations! Chris Wyse | Matthew Hodges

Join our team!?? Cesium is hiring a Federal Technical Business Development Manager. This is a fantastic opportunity to join a great company in culture, people, and technology. This is a remote position and if you are in the Philadelphia or DC area that is a plus. We are looking for someone with a technical background in the geospatial and/or mod sim community who also has experience managing a sales pipeline. Cesium doubled in size last year, and I'm beyond grateful to have been a part of this growth. Here is an overview of my takeaways shortly after being hired: https://lnkd.in/eeKEyXTm Official job posting: https://lnkd.in/eRR7Pera

Because space is crowded and sometimes contentious, awareness is critical. COMSPOC has released Spacebook to make space data free to access and visualize with the help of CesiumJS. Learn more about how they did it and what it means for the space community: https://hubs.li/Q02ZzNhb0

Other than being a part of the emerging Industry4.0 and building out weather simulations that's value-add to industries like aviation, military, emergency response and weather information services (amongst others), Virtuweather is just a really fun product to play with! Our Co-Founder Adam Skinner and I recently sat down for some product testing and immediately fell into the rabbit hole of historic storms. We pulled historic data from a Toronto storm on 16th July, 2024 and spent an obscene amount of time simply admiring and exploring the cinematic experience. If you ever get the chance to sit down with Adam, be ready for an exploding bundle of passion around weather! We loved how the in-built light tracing features within Epic Games Unreal Engine 5 reacts so authentically with the player’s position, showing detail when exposed to light and being darker when inside shadows. We also loved how vivid, accurate, high fidelity and even colourful the terrain from Cesium is, providing a seamless and realistic geospatial experience. If you live in the area, you’d be able to see your house! And of course a big shout out to Aiden Soedjarwo, our Technical Co-Founder that’s built out our technology. With 5 simple clicks (to find a date, time, and click load), Virtuweather pulled historic radar data from NOAA: National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration and realistically rendered a vivid, volumetric storm creeping into Toronto, with a bonus WOW factor of the thick, rolling fog underneath the cloud structure. We also spent a solid 10 minutes geeking out over the storm front rising up and peeking out over the cloud structure, seen at the end of the clip. We’re grateful to be constantly learning about the new and exciting ways that weather is being utilised within next generation simulations. If anyone is looking for real time or simulated weather that’s visually authentic and physics capable within their Unreal Engine projects, we’d love to explore and collaborate! #simulations #digitaltwins #weather #industry4

We are just a week away from I/ITSEC 2024, and I can't wait! Cesium ion Self-Hosted + Cesium Global 3D Content will certainly be a hot topic at the Cesium booth this year. Announced at I/ITSEC 2023, Cesium ion Self-Hosted gives you the power to host Cesium Global 3D Content offline in your own environment. This means high-resolution global terrain data, like Cesium World Terrain with up to 1-meter accuracy, is available for unrestricted use across your disconnected and high side networks. You can also combine your own terrain data with it. Whether you're developing or deploying, these production-ready datasets give you a huge advantage. ?? Learn more about Cesium Global 3D Content: https://lnkd.in/eJ6tFUy6 Cesium ion Self-Hosted of course also comes with Cesium's 3D Tiling Pipelines. You can streamline your data workflows with tools for tiling everything from point clouds to photogrammetry to 3D models to terrain into open formats like OGC 3D Tiles. Plus, a new tiling pipeline will be announced at I/ITSEC 2024! Learn more about Cesium's 3D Tiling Pipelines: https://lnkd.in/e3aJM-aT For deployment, you can integrate Cesium ion Self-Hosted into your existing workflows with the intuitive user interface (the same one as Cesium ion SaaS) or by using REST APIs and command-line tools. The platform also includes a high-performance asset server for streaming your 3D Tiles datasets with robust authentication and authorization.

New CesiumJS tutorial, "Zero to Hero"! The tutorial covers getting started, adding 3D Tilesets, clamping models to terrain, advanced styling and filtering, LiDAR, BIM, QGIS, and real-time dynamic entities. The tutorial is part of a series created by Mohammad Hosseingholizadeh of GISWorld-Tech with support from a Cesium Ecosystem Grant. https://hubs.li/Q02Zb__60

Congrats and thanks to CreateAccess for facilitating three new 3D Creator Labs in our community: - Launchpad Philly - Upper Darby Library Municipal Branch - St. Andrew School Special thanks to Philadelphia Children's Foundation and Malvern Preparatory School for their contributions. I think I was a bit naive, but when Liz Dailey and I started CreateAccess, I did not realize how much of a barrier access to hardware is to getting started in 3D. Young people may (or may not) have phones or consoles, but often they do not have a computer, let alone one that can run something like Unreal Editor for Fortnite. So these labs help democratize access and are just a stone's throw from where I grew up and we live now. It has been a marquee year for Liz and the CreateAccess team. It reminds me of Cesium in many ways; lots of community need and growth opportunities, and working toward realizing the potential impact. Please join me in congratulating them and check out the website for more of what they are up to. https://createaccess.org/
